Forecast keeps mentioning mirk on south & west facing coasts in

Well on the tip of Cornwallwww.sennen-cove.com/lbtdy.htm

There is some cloud on the upslopes of the hills though. Culdrose is
catching it, but at sea level it's lovely. I notice it's nice on
Scilly as well.

Max of 16.4C in Penzance

I had to look it up! Mirk? Perfectly OK - I just wasn't sure and I
haven't seen it spelt like that before. Do you use that spelling in
Cornwall, Graham? It's always been "Murk" to me, but "mirk" is a
variation of "Murk"!

Can't claim the 'mirk' spelling is Cornish, it's just spelt both ways
and I used that spelling without really thinking.
